Pre-k Graduation



On Friday we got to go to Tristan Pre-k graduation. The kids sang song, Tristan didn't really sing but he did do some of the actions. They got a certificate that said they had completed the class. We even got to eat a little lunch. We had a pretty good time. And I am so proud of Tristan and in the fall he will go to kindergarten. A lot will be changing for him and me.

#3

I have been deciding weather or not to post this. So here it goes. I had one of the best experiences this last Sunday. I was sitting in Relief Society, and someone made the comment that sometimes we need to just be quiet and listen. At that moment a thought came into my mind that I was pregnant. It was so strong. It made me tear up and everything, it was such a powerful feeling. I wasn't sure that I could trust the feeling because I thought maybe I was just wanting it to be true so much that I was making things up. The feeling stayed with me all day. Then on Monday morning i still could shake the feeling. I did go and get a test, and sure enough it was positive. I had a blood test on Tuesday and it was also positive. So we are on our way to BABY #3!

Ben graduated from ALS last night. It has been a long five weeks. It is all done and now my husband is a STAFF SARGENT. I am so proud of him, he has worked so hard. I loved him so much.

the "big" bed


The past few nights Kenzie has been sleeping in the toddler bed. It is so cute, but it makes me a little sad. I didn't think she would be sleeping in a bed yet. I just put her on in one night and it worked. I was just seeing what she would do, well she loves it. If i try to put her in the crib then she gets all upset. This morning i checked on her to see if she was still on the bed and sure enough she was...




Yesterday she didn't take a nap, well she tried to fall asleep standing up. No scratch that she did fall asleep standing. Funny stuff.

full circle


So after being here for three months we made it all the way around the island yesterday. There was a lot of pretty scenery and it was nice to see some new sights. I just wish we could have stopped a few more places. I would really have liked to go to a new beach area but Ben wasn't up for more beach time. On the way back Ben let me stop a Ross, not a good idea for Saturday, but i found a few new dresses. I also got a few new things for the kids too. So it was a good day.

weekend fun


This was the beautiful sunset on Saturday night. It was the first one that I got a pretty good picture of.



Tristan actually hoped on and Ben took him for a ride. He doesn't look really happy in this one but he did like it, i just took the pictures at the wrong time.


On Friday after school I took the kids to the beach for a little bit to hopefully get a little energy out. We mostly played on the beach, the waves are a bit strong at that beach. But i think it was fun, I hoped the kids liked it.


On Saturday we went snorkeling and it was so much fun. Ben and I actually got to go in the water together, we haven't got to do that before. We saw fish and even a couple of blue starfish. We also saw one eel that was a couple of feet long and white. It looked like a pretty ribbon. So far the weekend has been good. We will see if it still is after today..

snorkeling :)

I have never been a big fan of lots of water. Guam of course has lots of water. I have been able to try snorkeling. It is so awesome. I love it. What is really neat is that you don't even have to be able to swim that much, which is helpful for me. You just kinda float. At first i got a cheep mask, and it broke after one use. Ben bought me some good stuff at the dive shop. I even got a pink mask. After seeing all of the fish by just snorkeling it is hard not to want to do scuba diving, so i could see more. I really would love to get a camera that i can take underwater. I would love to get some good pictures of the fish!

This is my new expensive gear..hopefully it will last a long time and i will get to use it a ton!

Ben is now certified. He would love for me to be able to go with him
